Chapter 408: The Ending (I)
December 4th
For a lot of people, it's just an ordinary workday.
But for the Blue House, for the Sunward Capital Charitable Foundation, for all the enterprises involved in the Kowloon Village Renovation Project and for the indigenous people of Kowloon Village, it is a day of great significance.
Almost a year has passed since the announcement of the renovation plan for Kowloon Village.
Under the leadership of IU, Kowloon Village has finally taken on a new look.
There is no worse environment with poor infrastructure, muddy roads, and foul odors in the air.
Smooth asphalt roads, well-developed infrastructure, brand new high-rise residential apartments, and water and electricity tees that were previously unimaginable.
These are the most basic, but in the eyes of the aborigines of Kowloon Village in the past, they were unattainable luxuries.
Kowloon Village entrance
Lee Sung-ho draped his down jacket over IU.
This ghost weather, the temperature is more suitable than the demeanor.
Although IU wore a thick coat and jacket, he still couldn't withstand the cold wind at the entrance of the village.
Cui Chenggen and the others were dressed in straight suits and looked glamorous, but in fact, they hid in the back and hugged together to keep warm.
Yoon Han-ki, Chief Secretary of the Blue House, attended today's unveiling ceremony as a representative.
The happiest are the aborigines of Kowloon Village.
The former low and rotten shacks are gone, looking up at the cement house, everyone has tears in their eyes, although they don't know how long they can live, but the rest of their lives can finally be the same as ordinary people.
There is no long nonsense literature, and the old people are not suitable for standing in the cold wind for a long time, and after a few words, the unveiling ceremony is completed.
More of the reporters' cameras followed behind the old man, allowing all those who paid attention to the matter to witness the new Kowloon Village.
In just ten minutes, the number of online messages has exceeded 100,000.
All of them are praises, praising the social responsibility of Sunward Capital Charitable Foundation, praising IU's charitable programs, and praising the selfless support of the Blue House and other enterprises.
Lee Sung-ho and IU became the stars of Kowloon Village.
Since the establishment of Sunward Capital Foundation, when there was a plan to renovate Kowloon Village, Li Chenghao and IU came to Kowloon Village for field investigation.
They didn't make any promises, but now everything is more tangible than any verbal promises.
Surrounded by the elderly, Lee Sung-ho and IU were smiling happily.
After talking, we went to the door of Building No. 1 together.
According to the distribution list, the elderly people were seen entering the building, and then went to the other buildings.
Cui Chenggen and the others followed behind honestly, and today they can be regarded as winning the hearts of the people for their family business and establishing a positive image.
Even in the face of the interview, several people were not greedy for credit, but answered with great emotional intelligence.
Month
IU has chosen a drama script, which TVN plans to plan and produce next year.
Li Chenghao probably glanced at the content of the script, which he could accept.
It mainly tells the story of an elite hotel manager who runs the De Luna Hotel with a beautiful but withdrawn boss due to a fateful event.
Title: Hotel De Luna
Christmas Eve
Lee Sung-ho took IU to London.
This is also the first home appearance of the club's new owner after Sunward Capital's acquisition of Tottenham Football Club.
After a few months, Lee Jong-hoon is much more mature than before
For the operation of the club, it is also perfect, and the concept instilled in him by Baggage Chenghao before is that professional things are handed over to professional people.
He managed key people without giving up on learning how to run a football club.
Today's Lee Jong-hoon is also well-known in the sports world of H country, of course, it is more because of his cooperation with Minister Hwang Hee, which has promoted many talented young football players to enter the European arena.
Month
Christmas Eve
IU asks Lee Sung-ho if he has any Christmas wishes, and she wants to transform into Santa Claus to fulfill his wish for Lee Sung-ho.
When Li Chenghao heard the words Santa Claus, he looked at the IU in front of him, and the picture had already appeared in his mind.
"Wish......"
IU shook his head: "Don't say what you can't say"
"Able to speak"
"Then what do you want?"
Li Chenghao was very serious and said slowly: "When I celebrate my birthday next year, how about you celebrate my birthday together?" ”
"You guys?"
"Oh, you guys."
IU thought of Bae Joo-hyun, and said in his heart that it was nothing for the two of them to celebrate Lee Sung-ho's birthday together, and Lee Sung-ho had been separated on his birthday this year, so Lee Sung-ho had a headache for a long time.
In the end, a very sensible method was adopted, distinguishing between the birthday of the ID card and the birthday of the lunar calendar, if there was one more person who wanted to celebrate his birthday, Li Chenghao did not know how to adjust the time.
So
His wish was so unpretentious.
By the way, I also do foreshadowing.
Who knows that in the future, if more people want to celebrate his birthday, it will be good for everyone to move to the day.
IU paid attention to Li Chenghao's expression, and saw that he was smiling a little stupid: "You'd better not think about something that will affect your health." ”
"Health?"
"Of course, I recently signed up for a boxing lesson with Joohyoni, and I forgot to tell you before."
Pinching his earlobe, Li Chenghao avoided the topic.
Next year, IU will shoot a TV series, Bae Joo-hyun will return to the stage with the group, and a concert will be held.
And his new goal for next year is to complete the investment of at least 300 companies.
And one more important, his life events.
years ago
Li Chenghao went to Huaxia.
Lee Jae-hyun was seriously ill and hospitalized, and he went with IU to visit Lee Jae-hyun when he was dying.
IU kept holding her mother's hand tightly.
Although the mode of getting along between my mother and Lee Jae-hyun in the past ten years has not been very good.
But in the end, the person on the hospital bed is the only man my mother can rely on in this life.
After all, they had a short and happy life before.
now
As you get older, some people will leave you, unless you are hard-hearted, there will still be reluctance in the end.
In Huaxia
Lee Sung-ho also saw Lee Sun-ho, who had disappeared for more than half a year.
I learned from my mother that Lee Sun-ho went to live in country M after leaving CJ Group.
He doesn't worry about eating, drinking, or spending money.
Hung out all day long, and smoked that thing all the time.
So much so that when he saw Li Shanhao, IU couldn't say a word in fright, and Li Chenghao didn't recognize the brother who once looked down on him for the first time.
Lee Sun-ho's hatred for Lee Sun-ho has not yet dissipated.
But unexpectedly, he knew that he might soon follow Lee Jae-hyun to die.
Before parting at Huaxia Hospital, Li Shanhao handed Li Chenghao a document bag.
Inside is the proof that he transferred the shares of CJ Group to Lee Sung-ho free of charge.
Li Chenghao didn't say anything, and he couldn't say the word thank you.
He is also a human being, and he can't be atmospheric in some things, and he can't do it without care.
Don't persuade others to be kind without others suffering.
January
Lee Jae-hyun died of illness in the Imperial Capital Hospital.
Ten days later
Lee Sun-ho died of illness in country M.
On the eve of the Chinese New Year
Li Chenghao took his mother to Seongbuk-dong.
This Chinese New Year is different from the past.
Lee Sung-ho's mother, Lee Mi-kyung, and even Son Kyung-sik, who came back from China, came to Seongbuk-dong and spent it with the IU family.
Take IU's hand.
Li Chenghao didn't know what his mother and aunt told her, in short, they looked at him from time to time, and IU was always shy, Li Chenghao could guess a rough idea.
Sooner or later, I will get married, and sooner or later I will marry IU, who is recognized by everyone.
This is a fact that will not change, but Li Chenghao wants to balance it well, and when he is ready, maybe this year, maybe next year, he will complete it.
